Persol 649 Aviator SunglassesBlack

Established in 1917, Persol - taken from the Italian for 'for sun' - started out life producing highly functional eyewear for military pilots and racing drivers. With a progressive approach that ensured they stood out from the crowd, Persol went on to translate their utilitarian approach into a range of day to day eyewear, incorporating a variety of their patented technology into a signature collection of highly sophisticated designs. Drawing on their rich history, Persol continue to dominate the world of eyewear today with a selection of hand crafted, timeless models, constructed in Luxottica's historic factory in Turin, Italy.

First developed in 1957, the 649 is Persol's signature style encompassing their form meets function approach and built with some of their industry leading technology. Constructed with natural acetate frames and neutral crystal lenses, the Persol 649 Aviator Sunglasses are kitted out with Meflecto flexible stems and a Victor Flex bridge, both designed to offer a superior fit. The eyewear of choice for screen legend Steve McQueen, this iconic design is finished off with Persol's signature Silver Arrow connecting the arms.
